Pet Sitting Otay Ranch

About: Hi, I’m Cristina! I’m a lifelong animal lover who believes pets deserve patience, attention, and care that feels like home. I’m a reliable and detail-oriented person who enjoys getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m currently training for a marathon, so I spend a lot of time outdoors and would love to take your pup along for walks, adventures, or even a run if that’s something they enjoy. Whether your dog is energetic and loves exploring or prefers a relaxed stroll and some extra attention, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’m available for morning and evening walks/drop-ins, and I’m happy to provide boarding on weekends. However, I’ll do my best to adjust my schedule to your pet’s individual routine and needs should you have a request outside those windows. I provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can maintain their normal routines. I don’t have any pets of my own and only host one pup at a time. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs. Should you choose for drop-ins, I'll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Cynthia is amazing and takes amazing care of our new puppy while we are at work. She makes sure to make every walk/drop in visit fun and ensures our dog is safe at all times.”

“Marielle was amazing and I cannot recommend her enough. It was my first using a sitter & leaving my kitten since I got him, but Marielle made me feel completely at ease. She paid attention details & kept me updated while on my trip. Your pet will be well cared for in Marielle’s hands.”

About: My family has our own dog Wilbur (see profile pic) who I love to take on walks and runs! I also like to play with him! One of his favorite games is tug of war. I’m a college student on summer break, so my schedule is fairly open. I’m willing to work around your schedule so we can find the time that works best for you! I will make sure your dog is hydrated by offering water during walks. I also like to give Wilbur a treat at the end of our walks, and I’ll do the same for your dog if you like! When checking up on your dog, I will make sure they have enough food, water, and attention.

About: I care for dogs of all ages, from energetic pups to senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle handling, and comfort. I tailor walks, playtime, and companionship to each pet’s needs, making sure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. My experience with older dogs has taught me how to provide calm, attentive care that helps them feel secure and supported. I’m available Monday through Sunday on my off hours from my regular job. Please message for specific availability as it varies throughout the week. At home, my dog is fed on a consistent routine and enjoys regular walks to stay happy and healthy. I understand the importance of structure and care for my fur child.

“Teressa was on time for our meet and greet. My dog and Teressa became friends immediately.”

About: I have a lifetime of love for dogs and years of casual experience caring for the pets of my family. While I keep things simple, I focus on what matters most: keeping your dog safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Because I am currently transitioning between full-time roles, my schedule is wide open and highly flexible. Pet care is my primary focus right now, allowing me to easily accommodate specific daytime routines. When I watch your pet in your home, my top priorities are maintaining their safety, respecting your space, and keeping their environment stress-free. I treat your home with the utmost respect and follow all safety protocols to give you complete peace of mind.

“Amazing took care of my pups”

“Kerri was a wonderful sitter for my 2 kitties! She had great communication from start to finish, showed up on time, left a nice update after each visit and sent me lots of cute photos of my furbabies! I felt confident they were in good hands while I was away. I would definitely hire Kerri again.”

About: I'm a San Diego local and dog mom to my own pup, Biggie — so I know firsthand how much it means to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby. I work from home most days, which means your dog gets real attention and companionship throughout the day — not just a quick check-in. I'm also available for same-day bookings, so if something comes up last minute, I've got you covered. I'm comfortable with all dogs including: -Puppies needing socialization and structure -Senior dogs requiring gentle care or medication administration -High-energy breeds that need real exercise -Anxious or shy dogs who need extra patience and TLC Every dog I care for gets treated like my own — I follow their routine, respect their quirks, and send regular photo updates so you never have to wonder how they're doing. Your peace of mind is just as important to me as your pup's happiness. I work from home, so I have tons of flexibility to stop by and visit your pets whenever works best for you - morning, afternoon, evening, or multiple times a day. No rigid 9-5 schedule to work around! I treat every pet in my care like my own. I know how much your dog means to you, so I give them my full attention and never leave them unsupervised in an unfamiliar environment. Whether I'm in your home for a drop-in or an overnight stay, I respect your space, follow your pet's routine, and keep you updated with photos and check-ins throughout my visit so you always know they're in good hands.

About: I’m active duty military who was previously an animal science major. I love and have experience with animals of all kinds. I have been the girl who is outside picking up strays and bringing them home for loving and care. I have experience from working in a boarding home to being a foster mom. My experience with animals aren’t limited to just cats and dogs either, I own a frog and two hermit crabs, I’ve also worked with cattle for a brief moment. I have experience with feeding, administering medication, grooming pets, and much more. I hope that I get to spread my love to all the animals soft and fluffy! If there are any questions about what else I have experience with feel free to ask! Looking forward to working with you and all the cute little babies. I work full time, but my days start early and I’m done around the mid afternoon. I would be able to check on them at active times of the day. I’ll be able to care for your pets as if they were mine. If needed I’m able to stand in for all the things you do with your pet on a daily basis.

About: Hi! I’m Kendra, a lifelong animal lover who works from home, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including my own Goldendoodle, Leo. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I’ll tailor their stay to their individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to provide a clean, safe, and loving home where your dog feels like part of the family. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing around the house, playing, or going on walks, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home where dogs are treated like family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special needs before their stay. My Toy Goldendoodle, Leo, is friendly and loves meeting new friends, but introductions are always done slowly and safely to make sure everyone is comfortable. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

“Nathaniel thinks of things that I feel like not everyone else would - I stupidly forgot to fill up my cats water fountain - he heard the noise indicating it was low and refilled it for us. He truly treats our cats as if they are his own, making sure to take the upmost care. Truly a blessing to have Nathaniel watch our cats as we are out of town - highly recommend as always!!!! :)”

“Kathy really came through for us last minute! She took great care of Milo and we’d have her back anytime!”

About: I have experience with dogs and birds. I’ve raised parrots for years but left them with my parents in Texas. I am a biologist who moved out here for work with my girlfriend. We have a Pomeranian named Teddy that loves attention and playing with other animals. We will do our best to accommodate any needs for your furry friend :) I’m available full time :) just shoot me a message and I can see what I can do for you as I do have my own pets and family. I live in a 1bedroom with our small Pomeranians Teddy and Chloe. They love to run around and play with his toys and sunbathe as we have a huge window with a view. In any case, know that a watchful eye will always be kept on your fur baby as space is limited:)

About: Hi there! I’m a pet parent with experience in walking and petsitting both dogs and cats. I also have limited experience working with other animals, such as birds, fish, and reptiles. I currently have 2 cats but have a long history of raising pets of different kinds. I love all animals and am pawsitively excited to meet yours! 🐾 I’m doing petsitting and dogwalking as a primary source of income right now so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m doing this on an almost daily basis! I have a lot of experience with animals with different needs and can easily adapt to fit your pets’ needs, whatever they may be. We can communicate about what is necessary!

“We have a special needs 10 year old diabetic/blind shorkie mix that needs meds with her meals and insulin injections. Stephanie's veterinary experience was invaluable in taking care of our pupper while I went away on a 5 day work trip. Stephanie took care of everything during our dogs morning and evening meals and was very communicative about how our pup was doing. Will definitely book with Stephanie again and recommend others do also! She is super awesome!”

About: I have had dogs pretty much my entire life, and I have cared for other people’s dogs multiple times through Rover. My puppies are very friendly, and we spend lots of time at dog parks and on walks. I am very active, attentive, and out household loves couch snuggles! I make my own schedule, so I can run home to let dogs out, take them for walks, and feed them whenever they need! I work close to home as well, so I never leave for very long. I care for pets in other’s home in the same way I care for pets in my home: with lots of love and toys! I keep my home clean, but I always have dog toys around the house.
